Paton B.E., Medovar L.B. and Saenko V.Ya. About prospects of bimetal production using electroslag process 2
The role of electroslag welding process in producing bimetal ingots for manufacturing sheets and rolled sections is shown. Specifics of manufacture of bimetal section semi-products by rolling in section mills of square two-layer ingots, produced by the method of cladding using mandrels of different shapes, and also by rolling and hot pressing of composite round two-layer billets, is considered. The feasibility of use of the electroslag process with a liquid metal in the production of bimetal ingots in ESR furnaces, including also the method of a continuous electroslag casting, is evaluated.
Troyansky A.A., Ryabtsev A.D., Mastepan V.Yu. and Samborsky M.V. Application of harmonic analysis of electric parameters for monitoring and control of ESR process 7
The feasibility of application of harmonic analysis for monitoring of the process of a chamber-type ESR is shown. Values of coefficients of harmonics are given for remelting using fluxes ANF-6, ANF-1P, pure CaF2 and CaF2ДCa system. It was suggested to use the information, obtained by this method, in automated systems of the ESR technological process control.
Biktagirov F.K. and Krikent I.V. Specifics of thermal interaction between slag and metal under conditions of electroslag heating 10
Laws of heat generation and mass transfer in slag pool at different diagrams of current supply were studied on the mathematical models relative to the non-consumable electroslag process. It is shown that to improve the heat transfer from slag to metal at a bifilar diagram of current supply, as well as at a three-phase diagram, it is necessary to keep certain geometric proportions of arrangement of electrodes in the slag melt. Experimental investigations of heat balance in electroslag heating of metal confirmed the calculated results.

At CJSC "SETAB Nikopol Works", the cold-worked pipes, made of ingots, produced from titanium alloy PT-1M using the method of electron beam cold hearth melting at R&P Center "Titan" of the E.O. Paton Electric Welding Institute of the NAS of Ukraine, were manufactured. By its properties the forged billet, produced from these ingots, meets the requirements of TS 1-5-132Д78. Cold-worked pipes, manufactured from it, satisfy the requirements of GOST 22897Д86 and TS 14-3-820Д79. Quality of the surface, content of impurities, mechanical and technological properties of ready pipes are similar to the same characteristics for the pipes manufactured from the VAR metal.

From results of investigations the most rational variant of design of a skull 7 t capacity furnace was defined. Possible variants of large-capacity furnaces and rationality of their design from the point of view of nature of melting the different-diameter consumable electrodes and thermal and hydrodynamic processes proceeding in molten pool of crucible of different capacity were considered.

Using models of metal melts with BCC-like structure, the solubility of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and other gases in metal and salt solutions was studied. Close correlations between the solubility and integral parameters of atomic interaction were established which allow numerical prediction of solubility of gases and carbon in metal and salt melts of different composition.
